Inner Confession Practice
Psalms 38:18 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Psalms 38 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse speaks of owning one's iniquity and feeling remorse, signaling a turning toward repentance.
Neville's Inner Vision
To Neville, the verse is not a ledger of guilt but a confession that reveals the state of your consciousness. I will declare mine iniquity is an admission that you have allowed a belief in separation from your I AM, the living awareness that you are. The sorrow is not punishment but the trigger that moves your mind from the old image to the new. In this light, repentance is not about clinging to guilt but about revising the inner traffic pattern—felt sense shifting from blame to the certainty of a forgiven self. When you declare the sin, you are naming the old condition so you can release it; when you feel sorry, you align your feeling with the truth that you are the I AM, uncondemned, whole, and complete. The outward evidence (the sin's consequences) then recedes as your inner state changes. The practical truth: repentance is an inner assumption that you already possess forgiveness and renewal, which then manifests as new circumstances. The verse invites you to take personal responsibility for the inner drama and to reimagine the self as one with divine mercy.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and mentally declare I AM forgiven. Then revise the sense of separation by feeling the mercy as your natural state and allow a renewed inner life to unfold.
